Our Services

Your small or medium sized nonprofit needs to do just about everything a large organization does, but with fewer staff and internal resources.  

You’ve been getting by. One by one, you’ve assigned Finance or Human Resources tasks to different staff members, or you’ve outsourced critical functions.  

But you’ve grown too big and too complex for one-off solutions.  

You need a whole person to handle the whole of your Finance or HR needs, or major chunks of it.  

A Carey & Co professional, a seasoned expert in their field, can fill that role on an interim, long term, or part time basis.  

And because Carey has a deep benche in both Finance and HR, we can also help you align the work of both departments.

1+1=3: TAKING YOUR ORGANIZATION TO A NEW HIGH  

FINANCE  

Carey will be your CFO.  

You don’t have a CFO, so someone’s handling the numbers “on the side”. Your Executive Director or a board member is keeping an eye on Finance and overseeing your junior accountants and bookkeepers. Things more or less get done, well enough.  

But your organization is growing and stretching, and it’s clear: You need real financial leadership. Someone who’ll

  • shape and lead the accounting team;
  • shape and lead the accounting team;  
  • interpret and communicate financial information;  
  • keep track of cash and investments;
  • manage relationships with financial institutions;  
  • identify and manage risks;  
  • select and implement software;  
  • lead the budgeting process; and
  • prepare financial projections to support smart decision making.  
Carey will do all that.    

Carey will be your chief accountant or controller.  

You don’t have a staff account or controller, and you’re not ready to bring a new hire on board. But you need someone to take charge, for now. Someone who’ll produce financial statements following applicable accounting standards. Someone who’ll see that accounting controls are appropriate and working.  

Carey will do all that.      

Carey will handle your transaction processing and bookkeeping.  

Money’s coming in and going out. Someone needs to enter that into an accounting system in a disciplined, predictable fashion, so that the numbers can be rolled up into usable financial reports.    

Carey will do all that.     

HUMAN RESOURCES  

Carey will be your Chief People Officer/Head of Human Resources.  

Talk about reach! Human Resources is an exploding and fast changing function in today’s nonprofit world.  

You’re struggling to keep up. HR is being handled piecemeal. The many things that don’t get done are causing your organization—and your people—pain. Your lack of HR leadership is keeping you from living up to your ideals and beliefs.  

You urgently need someone who’ll tackle

  • training and development;  
  • talent management;
  • performance management;
  • developing a compensation and benefits plans in line with industry best practices;
  • change management.  
  • Carey will do all that.   ‍

Carey will be your HR generalist.  

You have a terrific person in the top HR position. Or you’ve decided to move forward without one. Either way, you need a versatile, broadly experienced HR pro. Someone who’ll make the many day-to-day HR functions happen smoothly. Someone who’ll focus on, or allow the department head to focus on, aligning HR with your organization’s values, mission, purpose, and strategy.  

Carey will do all that.  

Carey will be your payroll & benefits manager.

You’ve got to take care of your people. To start with, you want them to be paid, and to receive the benefits you’ve committed to. But no one is fully committed to making that happen.

Carey will do all that.
